Hi,
The sentences below are what I used for the front page of my brand webpage which will be launched next year. It's a kind of parking page. I'm wondering if it is perfectly formal for english natives.


Thank you for visiting ******.com. Our webpage wiill be relreased in a few months. For inquiries about brand or product, please email us at **@******.com.


The brand is quite high-end, so I want them to be gentle and professional manner.
I appreciate if one of teachers help me.
Thanks in advance.

Please see my amendments both to the wording of your parking page and to your post. What you will be launching next year is a website (not a webpage) and so far you have built one page.

Do you expect most visitors to actually have questions about your brand? I should think they would care about your products and/or services. They aren't going to care about your brand. Perhaps your company as whole?

I thought people would be curious about our brand rather than service because it is new brand which people aren't familiar with. Furthermore, it is a fashion related brand. Thank you so much for all of your advice.

I can understand you wanting the contents of your webpage to be professional, but gentle isn't really something associated with written English.
